RE: All Staff Meeting - Today - Gus Poyet

Hi All,
1) ...when Crystal Palace players and staff arrived to the Amex and went into their dressing room, they found themselves in a very uncomfortable situation, for some reason that still no clear to me, someone during the day had had access to the away dressing room and done something terrible trying to upset everyone related to Palace, to say it in clear English, someone had a "poo" all outside the toilets, over and around the toilets.
Now, after careful consideration, and even after a meeting with the Chairman who assured me that MY REPUTATION IS INTACT, I feel that I must express my anger that anyone inside this organisation thought they could interfere with it. I am angry that someone within this club could endanger our good reputation and stoop so low - did they imagine that this would affect the Crystal Palace players - well possibly it did - it may just have fired them up even more.
Well that line is nowhere in the picture of the email
I find it very difficult to believe that no one checked the dressing room before CP arrived, I'm fairly certain there would have been BHA staff going in and out of there all afternoon.
Even IF someone managed to desecrate the floor, CP back room staff would have arrived before the team to setup phyiso equipment, lay out shirts etc. Any "mess" would have been cleared before the team arrived.
I think the whole situation has been blow way out of proportion, fanned by that classic rag "The Sun", who clearly use fan forums as their source for "world class" journalism
There are flaws in your thought process 1) one of the people you suggest were checking the dressing rooms might have done the dump 2) it probably was the back-room staff who found the dump. Is anyone suggesting the actual CP players found it?
did anyone follow his movements before the game?

Gus's email suggest Palace players were greeted with the Richard III, I still think there would have been memebers of both teams in and out of the room most of the day... Yes, someone crimped one out on the floor, but I suspect it was dealt with quickly and before any big deal could have been made about it.. It's pretty typical of a tabloid to make a mountain out of a molehill!
It's a figure of speech. I am not taking it literally to state that every player and staff member bowled into the changing room at the same time.
